Letters. We Get Letters.


We get a peep out of Just Born, Inc. Is that the same as a nibble?

Day Three of the official Peepdown, and the wait is down for the count.
The people at Just Born., Inc., manufacturers of Peeps Cocoa Cats, have responded to my e-mail requesting production of Fox Terrier Peeps.
Were they full of sweet talk?
Let's see:

Senior Editor, Mr. Doodles Dog

From: Allyson Greer

Dear Nigel,
 
We certainly appreciate your suggestion for additional shapes of our PEEPS® candies.  Our product development and marketing teams are always busy working on tasty new flavors for our candies; and we always enjoy hearing what our valued consumers want.
 
Thank you for taking the time to contact us.
 
Regards,
 
Allyson Greer
Just Born, Inc.
Consumer Relations Department

You're welcome, Ms. Greer.
My guess is that if we fox terriers keep the polite pressure on, we can realize the Fox Terrier Peeps dream before too long. Once people get a taste of the Peeps Cocoa Cats, with that marriage of cocoa and marshmallow, the dog peeps will look that much better.
Hmmm. How about toying trying for working our way into the popular culture?

"Visions of Fox Terrier Peeps danced through their heads."

Maybe now that the people at Just Born, Inc. have seen what a Fox Terrier Peep could look like, (above illustration) they will come running.
Sweet surrender, perhaps?
--Nigel
